The Intense Battle For Your Money
Supply management is is just another tax. A substantial tax too as it effectively raises the price of dairy and poultry products more than 200%. This system might be about to be eliminated though, if a Quebec movement has their way.

Bill’s Wife
It’s zombie time at campaign Hillary. Behold the dead men walking! It was with strangely slow, narcotized numbness that the candidate and her phalanx of minions and mouthpieces responded to last week’s punishing report by the State Department’s Inspector General about her email security lapses. Do they truly believe, in the rosy alternate universe of Hillaryland, that they can lie their way out of this?
A tax by any other name.
But, Lorrie, if they raised the GST it would rightfully be seen for what it is.
An example of revenue neutral carbon pricing would be to raise the GST or HST, essentially a broad-based tax on consumption which is what a carbon tax is, and then return all the extra money in income tax cuts, and grants to the poor who do not earn enough to pay taxes.

Another set of dupes
I’m betting these guys didn’t see this coming from their ‘ABC’ campaign.
To do that, the government will essentially demote some veterans to a rank below the one they held when they left the military – something that the veterans say is not only unfair but humiliating.
Anything to save a buck for ‘office renovations’, refugees and PM Selfie’s vacations, eh.

The Russians and Chinese know more about Hillary’s email than the American public.
In their customary fashion, Team Clinton is pushing back with a touch of cheek. Ms. Clinton now plans a serious effort to sell herself as the better national security candidate than Donald Trump, based on her tenure of secretary of state. While there is no denying Mr. Trump is a national security neophyte who seems unacquainted with some of the basic lingo of that field, he is not under FBI investigation for espionage and political corruption.

Amarjeet Sohi’s Office
Michelle Rempel is on the hunt for an explanation of why Edmonton Mill Woods MP Amarjeet Sohi spent $835k on ‘office renovations’.
Luckily for him, the CBC has his back.
@jfgroves The Conservatives claim the $835,000 was for office renovations. That isn't true. New department, new office, new staff. ^jb

Course, it isn’t a new department or a new office….

Update: SDA Gets Results
CBC News regrets that this tweet did not accurately represent the known facts of the story. 1/2

BI (before Internet) these Liberals with bylines would have gotten away with it and set the narrative. Should have sold the CBC when the Conservatives had the majority. What’s the worst that could have happened? Lose the election?
Tootoo Out
Lots of rumours going around about the former Fisheries Minister.
It would be normal to leave cabinet, not so normal to also leave the caucus.
Let’s not get anyone sued by jumping to conclusions on SDA, eh?

… This is a war over how dialogue in America will be shaped. If Hillary wins, we’re going to see a further tightening of PC culture. But if Trump wins? If Trump wins, we will have a president that overwhelmingly rejects PC rhetoric. Even better, we will show that more than half the country rejects this insane PC regime.”

Most Conservatives Really Don’t Deserve Western Civilization
“This, among other things, has forced me to conclude that the majority of conservatives (not all) are very much like most liberals and leftists. They view politics and economics not as the key to unlock and unleash the total potential of human kind, allowing us to drastically improve the lives of future generations, and achieve untold levels of greatness in our own. They view it as a religion, a therapy session, and a substitute for real and genuine accomplishment in life because they’re too damn lazy to put any real work or effort into it. This is why after 40 years of Rush Limbaugh and 35 years of conservative talk radio, nothing has been achieved because, just like going to church, it’s easier to bitch, whine, lament, rue, and mope, than actually put forth the work and effort. And just because they claim to be conservative doesn’t meant they have a harder work ethic or know better. They just happened to be lucky to choose the political model that actually works.”

“The difficulties I have faced in accessing the information my office needs to produce relevant and timely analyses are much greater than I expected they would be,” LeClair said. “Ministries have repeatedly refused to provide my office with information on grounds that are not founded in my enabling legislation.”
